So you want to write a book and get it published, well here is another jump start

The title of the book I am suggesting is very telling when it comes to writing and then publishing your book. It is called 78 Reasons Why Your Book May Never Be Published and 14 Reasons Why It Just Might by Pat Walsh.

Drawing on his experience as founding editor of MacAdam/Cage, Pat Walsh gives writers what they a need-specific, straightforward feedback to help them overcome bad habits and bad luck. He avoids the optimistic sometimes misleading directions often found in publishing how-to books and presents the industry as it is, warts and all. Here is the first guide that tells writers just what the odds against them are and gives them practical tips for evening them.

It is important to remember that the odds of getting your book published are not in your favor, but if you truly believe in your project and believe you have a message that will resonate, don't give up. You probably do have a message.
